Description

Platypus 2 is a 34ft Seawind Resort catamaran and one of the most versatile and social charter boats on Sydney Harbour. With capacity for up to 30 guests, she’s designed for easy entertaining, offering the perfect balance of comfort, functionality, and open space.

Unlike standard catamarans, Platypus 2 features a unique open-plan layout, combining the indoor and outdoor areas into one seamless entertainment space. Guests can move freely around the vessel, relax, dance, and dine while enjoying uninterrupted views of the harbour.

At the front of the boat, trampoline-style sun beds provide the perfect spot to stretch out and soak up the sun. A built-in gas BBQ makes onboard catering effortless, and the crew are happy to take over the cooking once the vessel is at anchor.

Platypus 2 is ideal for a wide range of occasions, from birthday parties and casual corporate cruises to summer gatherings and Australia Day celebrations. Her spacious design, easy layout, and relaxed atmosphere make her one of the best-value mid-sized charter boats available.

Prices start at *$3000 for a whole yacht and *$165 per person for a single ticket.
